Little Lottie

Leather Leaves
Leather Leaves, Plum Guide home in Los Angeles
Click to book Leather Leaves now: from £380 per night High in the hills, in a quiet spot that's still within easy reach of attractions like Universal Studios and the Walk Of Fame, this home has views aplenty thanks to balconies on both its floors. An example of upside-down living, you'll find the bright, spacious lounge upstairs, with its mid-century modern styling, blonde wood floors and impressive vaulted ceiling. Step out onto the balcony and you're rewarded with incredible, leafy views. There's a smart kitchen that's fully equipped so you can cook at home, and the huge windows flood the whole level with natural light. Downstairs you'll find two of the bedrooms and another balcony – just in case one wasn't enough. Great for keen hikers, you can walk across the hills to the Hollywood sign in around forty-five minutes or fifteen minutes to the reservoir.

Limelight
Limelight, Plum Guide home in Los Angeles

This does mean that the neighbourhood can get a little busy at night, so if you’re sensitive to noise then this home is not for you. However, it's a perfect base for sightseeing, with Hollywood Boulevard less than five minutes away by car. After a day spent exploring, the home itself is a peaceful retreat, with scented candles and plants dotted around each room. The space feels contemporary and chic, with plenty of room to spread out. Sleeps up to 4 | 2 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms
